Proven marketing expert joins to fuel next stage of growth

leepeckmedia has appointed experienced marketing expert Taylor Haydon as the agency looks to continue its ongoing growth in both size and service offering.

Taylor joins the Southampton-based PR-led communications agency from SME ActiveMe 360, where she held the position of Head of Marketing, having created and built up the marketing function at the social enterprise.

She previously held roles at both Southampton City Council and BECG (now Cavendish), where she gained experience in public affairs and digital communications.

Across all her roles Taylor has remained committed to using communications as a force for positive impact – a focus reflected in her passion for sustainability.

Taylor completed the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership’s Business Management course earlier this year, deepening her understanding of how sustainable practice can be embedded and communicated across business strategy for both ethical and commercial benefit.

This commitment to sustainability drew her to leepeckmedia, which has a broad client base of organisations leading the way in environmental impact.

Commenting on her appointment, Taylor said: “The team at leepeckmedia have an outstanding reputation for their ability to build long lasting and meaningful client partnerships, and I’m excited to be joining the team at such a pivotal time. Sustainability is a real passion of mine, and as an EV driver, I’m thrilled to be working with national clients like InstaVolt and Enviromena, alongside local businesses that are championing positive change in their communities.”

Lee Peck, Managing Director of leepeckmedia, added: “We’re delighted to welcome Taylor to the team. Her expertise in marketing and digital communications further enhances the services we can offer our clients, and her passion for sustainability aligns perfectly with our own values and the ambitions of many of our clients. As we continue to grow, we want to be recognised as the South Coast’s PR agency of choice – and talented professionals like Taylor will help us achieve that.”

As part of its ongoing expansion, leepeckmedia moved to new offices at the University of Southampton Science Park in Chilworth over the summer. The move further supports the agency’s growth trajectory as they continue to support clients regionally, nationally, and internationally across media relations, strategy, marketing, design, social media and reputation management.
